Heed the warning signs

A young black bear near Two Dog Flats. Encountered from the rental car.

Heed the warning signs.

But do not become paralyzed by publicized risk.

Wisdom comes from experience. Experience comes from making mistakes.

Experience tells you that your body is a temple housing everything keeping you alive.

Experience reveals that neglect is a slow and insidious predator. Just look at the people one and two generations ahead of you.

Learn from the ones who get and stay healthy for a lifetime. To not learn from them is one of life’s biggest unpublicized risks.

Dear CHO: Chief Health Officer,

Thank you for your lifetime of continuous physical improvement. We appreciate your vision, determination, and enthusiasm to get and stay healthy: to be an example and not a warning, and to find a million ways to stay motivated.

You know what you’re doing?

You know what you’re doing?

Right?

You know the “I don’t have time or energy (in my life) to start exercising” narrative that busy people lean on?

What if we didn’t lean on it?

Because bottomline, you *have* to know what you’re doing to yourself by not taking care of yourself.

You have to know.

Right?

Smile with your body today

Disney Keynote Speaker Jeff Noel on a mountain
You smile with your body simply by using it to move yourself around.

Smile with your body today.

And by today, that means everyday.

Magic, remember?

But you already know that.

Aha, jeff is doing the whole repetitive mantra thing again.
